What is research in education? And what is it for in a digital age?
Reflecting upon these questions, this engaging introduction
provides critical discussion about the dilemmas of researching
education in the digital age and ways forward for research in this
complex area. Research Methods for Education in the Digital Age
begins by outlining forms of education that are seen as digital,
such as virtual, blended, immersive learning and examining the
extent to which these are different or just adapted versions of
earlier methods and approaches to education. Maggi Savin-Baden and
Gemma Tombs explore current practices in research, identifying the
successful adoption and adaption of theories and present practical
guidance on new and emerging methodologies, methods, and analytical
practices for undertaking educational research. New methodologies
discussed include digital arts-based inquiry and digital visual
methodologies, as well as adaptations of widely used methodologies
such as ethnography, for the specific needs of researching digital
teaching and learning. The book outlines the major challenges faced
by today's digital researchers, exploring approaches to digital
ethics, the relationship between qualitative and quantitative data
in the digital age, digital data representations and portrayal and
suggests helpful ways of dealing with the complexities and ethical
challenges of undertaking research in and for digital spaces. Using
case studies, research tips, a glossary and annotated further
reading, the authors take a step by step approach from
conceptualizing the research ideas, selecting the appropriate
method to the dissemination of the findings. At a time when
education is changing rapidly with digital and technological
advances, Research Methods for Education in the Digital Age is
essential reading for researchers wanting to undertake sound and
rigorous research in the digital domain.
